Re: EU trade deal announced

The week's question

In December 2024, in the thread "Re: BRK: Why Not XOM?", BreckHutHigh asked the members: "What about the long road trips with kids?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

A couple quick points:
1) Apparently our MAGA friends are having trouble grasping what "seek to buy" means. Let’s try it another way. I "seek to" get hired as CEO of Goldman Sachs.

2) Selling more to the EU doesn't change global demand, it likely just means selling less to others.

3) The energy goes there with zero tariffs, while we pay 15% for things coming here!

4) Trump will do a lot of harm by charging Americans a 15% (or higher) import tax.

5) Viewing the results of these trade deals, it is becoming clear how Trump managed to go bankrupt 6 times...
